Already Feb.

Where has the last month gone? It flew by so quickly that I am astonished. Well, as an English teacher I have the TAKS test coming up on Feb. 20th, so until that time there probably wont be very many posts.
I got a camera for Christmas, so I will attempt to upload some new pictues. If you haven't seen the kids lately they are growing up quickly. I can't believe that next year Breck will be in high school, and Chad will be in Junior High. It doesn't seem possible quite yet.
Over Christmas I got to spend some time with my wonderful nephew, and I cherished the time I had with him and the rest of my family.
God has blessed us so much in all the aspects of our lives. We have our difficulties, but I can see God working all around me. I need to take a little more time to offer up my appreciation for all that God has provided.
I don't want something catastrophic to happen to make me appreciate what I have. I have an amazing husband who loves and adore's both the kids and me. I have two kids that are growing up quickly and are more often than not respectful to others. I have a job that is challenging, ever changing, and gives me the opportunity to let my light for Jesus shine, and I have a church family that is a huge blessing in my life.
I hope that this finds you all well, happy, and loved.
